*Official* New Zealand in Bangladesh 2010

I agree but just cant hide the surprise and frustration with black caps.

They look like a really pathetic unit at the moment and I just cant believe that good ODI players like McCullum, Taylor are throwing it away on regular basis now.
Lazy excuse - you can hide it by deciding not to post such comments.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Any ODI batting lineup that has Vettori coming in at six just automatically looks terrible. I know part of it is due to lack of opportunity up the order and the fact that his batting has improved a lot compared to his early career, but seriously, the guy has passed 50 four times in 258 ODIs and averages 16.

He'll surely score a ton and win New Zealand the game from here or something now that I've said that but it's just ridiculous to have him there IMO. It's not a Test (and he doesn't even bat above seven in Tests anyway FFS).
Massive AWTA.

Also, this may just be our lowest point right now, so maybe this can inspire a shake up or something, so we'll come back stronger.

We'll play in the WC final. Heard it here first. :ph34r:

Vettori bats at 6 now in Tests I'm pretty sure.

that was Plumb LBW
I reckon it touched the bat on the way through. The ball seemed to change direction.

Cricinfo commentary agrees:
14.4 Mahmudullah to Vettori, no run, Vettori gets down for the sweep and inside edges into his back pad, appeal turned down

For some reason the TV commentators haven't noticed.
